Fellow Taoist: Do you have any spiritual stones on you?

"I really don't understand you. What's the use of refining two hundred high-grade mortal nets? It's just enough to catch fish in the lake..." Looking at the beaming Gu Feng, Chu Youhuan couldn't help but complain. road.

Mortal weapons are only suitable for monks below the acquired realm. Monks above the acquired realm hold spiritual weapons and can blow them up with a single blow. They are useless against smugglers.

"These mortal nets are meant to be blown up!" Gu Feng chuckled.

Hearing this, Chu Youhuan rolled his eyes.

Soon, the two returned to the swamp, and Wu Qi and others quickly surrounded them.

"I thought it would take you a few days to come back. Are all the weapon refiners in the army so awesome? In less than a day, you have refined a top-grade spiritual weapon?"

Gu Feng glanced briefly, then threw out a large net and hung it on the vines nearby.

The big net is three meters square, completely black, and is half submerged in the swamp. It blends perfectly with the color of the swamp and cannot be distinguished by the naked eye.

Just as Gu Feng was about to speak, A Fei's honest voice came to his ears, "Is this the big net we will use to catch smugglers in the future? Let me test its strength!"

Before Gu Feng could take action to stop him, he heard a bang, and the big net hanging on the vines was poked with a hole by A Fei's gun.

All seven runes on it exploded, and cracks like spider webs appeared in the entire web, which exploded the next moment.

A Fei was dumbfounded, and the other monks were also confused. Chu Youhuan, who was beside him, touched his forehead with his jade hand, speechless to the extreme.

"A Fei, what are you doing!" Gu Feng shouted loudly. In this worrying economic situation, every piece of spiritual stone is valuable. Ah Fei, a fool, actually broke it in one fell swoop. He bought it with [-] spiritual stones. of mortal utensils.

"I...I just want to try the strength of the big net, who knew it was so rubbish!" A Fei pursed his lips and said.

"This is a top-grade mortal weapon. Can it withstand your full blow? Your brain is such a good thing!

If you damage military property abnormally, these [-] spiritual stones will be recorded on your head. "

In desperation, Gu Feng threw out a big net again, "You must be thinking, what is the use of this big garbage net?"

Without waiting for anyone to answer, Gu Feng continued: "Used alone, these are certainly garbage nets. When combined with other items, they are the ultimate artifact to catch smugglers!"

"Yanxixi, Bao Shaoqiong!"

The two women heard the sound and stood up.

"Do you want to research whether you can refine a powdered medicine with the following functions: it has no obvious odor or does not smell particularly obvious in the swamp; it can stick to the surface of the human body when splashed on it and remain there for at least an hour; It’s best if it has a clear color that can be traced by us..."

Gu Feng originally thought that the two women would think for a long time before they could give the answer, but as soon as he said it, Yan Xixi said crisply: "Yes!"

Ok?

Gu Feng was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise: "Have you known about my plan for a long time?"

Yan Xixi smiled slightly, shook her head, and then pulled Qi Tingting out from the crowd. The latter lowered her head, as if she did not dare to look at people with their true colors.

"This morning, I asked Sister Tingting to help me capture a few 'black-blooded toads' living in the swamp. I wanted to try to extract something useful from this monster to make elixirs, but the result was... It’s become like this!”

While speaking, Yan Xixi gently raised Qi Tingting's head. Gu Feng almost laughed when he saw it.

Qi Tingting's originally smooth face now seemed to be covered with black sesame seeds, like pockmarks, and she looked particularly funny.

"Is this caused by the 'Black Blood Toad'?" Gu Feng asked with a twitch in his mouth.

"To be precise, the black spots on Sister Tingting's face are a kind of liquid secreted by the skin of the 'black toad'. It is not very toxic, but after being contaminated, it is estimated that it will take at least twelve hours to fade away." Yan Xi Xi chuckled.

"So awesome? That's great. When you feel sleepy, someone gives you a pillow!" Gu Feng grinned. This was really what he needed most at the moment.

"Brothers and sisters, I have a plan..."

Gu Feng's plan was very simple. He still used the big net as a trap and lurked it in the swamp. This method was no different from the one used by the previous officers.

The only difference is that he has to attach a layer of powder to the big net.

If a smuggler is caught in such a high-grade mortal net, whether it is him or his companions, the first thing they want to do is to break the net.

After all, it's so easy, it's just one strike.

Once the big net explodes, the special powder on it will splash out and adhere to the body surface of the monks. They can use this to track each other.

When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately lit up.

"What a good idea. If it is a high-grade spiritual weapon, those smugglers may not break it, but if it is a high-grade mortal weapon, it will be different." Wu Qi clapped his hands and said with a laugh.

"The smuggler's body is stained with powder, and he is like a beacon in the darkness. As long as his strength is not too incredible, he will be surrounded by us." Another monk nodded in agreement.

"Perhaps we should add some additives to the powder that are easily identifiable in the swamp."

"It's best to shine!"

"..."

At this point, all problems are no longer a problem. It would be too easy to add something similar to fluorescent stone powder to the powder.

"Do you know what to do next?"

"Catch the 'Black Blood Toad'!" Everyone shouted in unison.

"Then move!!!"

The 'Black-blooded Toad' has a strong reproductive capacity and can give birth to hundreds of eggs at one time. It is also extremely adaptable to the swamp environment. It has low combat effectiveness and is easy to catch.

"Everyone, please pay attention. After catching the 'Black Blood Toad', attack his head when killing him. It is best to make him struggle for three breaths, so that he will secrete more liquid before dying!"

Yan Xixi shouted the precautions, while Gu Feng sat on the vine, drinking spiritual wine, looking at the busy people, grinning.

Chu Youhuan on the side curled her lips, because what was under Gu Feng's butt was her exclusive weapon, the silver sword.

In Gu Feng's words, he only has a black whip on his body, which is uncomfortable to put under his buttocks, so a broadsword is more suitable.

"If this plan fails again, what will happen next?" Chu Youhuan came over, also sitting on the sword, and asked softly.

"Failure? That's impossible!" Gu Feng said with a confident smile, his eyes sparkling with light.

......

On the third day, Yan Xixi and several alchemists prepared the special powder needed for twenty large nets.

After a brief trial, we started setting up traps.

"Everyone remember the location of the trap and don't step on it."

Gu Feng led everyone to carefully select several places in the central area between the border and the land, and placed twenty large nets.

This position is just right. Once the smugglers step on the trap, they can neither retreat nor advance, giving them plenty of time to catch them.

In order to know the movement of the trap as soon as possible, Gu Feng also placed a bell in the big net!

"Senior Sister Chu, you lead a team of people and wait in the middle of the swamp. Wherever there is movement, rush there!" Chu Youhuan is the only Xiantian monk present and has an absolute advantage in terms of force. Let her guard the center. Couldn't be more appropriate.

"Senior Sister Meng, you also lead a team of people to guard the place closest to the land. The main purpose is to keep the smugglers who enter there and get back!"

"Senior Brother Bai, you are quite familiar with this group of passionate young people. I will ask you to lead a team of people to guard the border to prevent smugglers from forcing their way through!"

"..."

Gu Feng made arrangements in an orderly manner. Senior Sister Meng and Senior Brother Bai, whom he said were both at the peak of acquired power, would lead people to guard both ends of the swamp, while Chu Youhuan would sweep across the middle.

Once a marked smuggler appears, it is difficult to escape this dragnet.

Of course, the main problem has not been solved, and there is no guarantee that those smugglers will not throw the storage rings into the swamp.

This was also a headache for Gu Feng, but there was nothing he could do, he didn't have any spiritual stones on him either.

He was betting on the momentary hesitation of the smugglers. Not everyone could decisively throw away the storage ring.

After all, they have an employer behind them, and even if they escape his punishment, they may not be able to escape the employer's punishment.

"Gu Feng, I added some mind-affecting drugs to the powder. I think it will help a little, but it will not have much effect on high-level monks." Yan Xixi also knew the importance of this matter and used the skills she had mastered. , try our best to help.

"Well, don't worry, my luck is not that bad, maybe I can catch a big fish on the first day!" Gu Feng said with a relaxed smile.

Time passed, and several hours passed without realizing it. Just when Gu Feng thought he had nothing to gain today, the sound of a jingling bell lifted his spirits!

"Come on!"

Scattered footsteps and sounds of fighting came from the mist. This sound only lasted about a quarter of the time it took to burn the incense before it suddenly stopped.

"How is it? Have you gained anything?"

Looking at Chu Youhuan walking towards him, Gu Feng asked in a low voice.

"Look at how embarrassed I am..." Chu Youhuan frowned and pointed to Gu Feng to look at her.

At this moment, Chu Youhuan was covered in swamp mud from his feet to his waist. Even his face was splashed a little, and it looked like he had fallen into the swamp.

"Oh - it's okay, continue next time, thank you for your hard work!" Gu Feng said with a bitter smile, did you fail?

"I'm in such a mess, how can I not catch it?" Chu Youhuan pursed his lips and smiled, opened his palms, and a storage ring suddenly appeared inside, with pride on his eyebrows.

"This...is this successful?" Gu Feng was ecstatic.

"The smuggler found that he was outmatched and wanted to throw the storage ring into the swamp. Senior Sister Chu killed him with a knife, then jumped out of the swamp and caught the storage ring that was about to disappear!" A female cultivator said loudly .

Looking at the storage ring covered in mud, Gu Feng said solemnly, with a hint of reproach in his tone: "From now on, grab the storage ring first, and then kill people!

Otherwise, if word spreads, it will be easy for someone to take advantage of you and punish you! "

In a sense, the border is similar to the outer gate of Luoxia Sect, and there are strict regulations.

If you catch a smuggler, the evidence is conclusive and you can kill him directly. If you don't get the storage ring and you can't prove that he is a smuggler, kill him first. It's okay if no one pursues him. If someone pursues him, he might point it to you. Charged with killing innocent people.

Military law is ruthless, and Gu Feng doesn't want this to happen.

"Well, I understand!" Chu Youhuan, who was scolded, his eyes flashed, and instead of blaming Gu Feng as usual, he lowered his head and replied softly.

"Come on, let's see what we have gained this time!"

Gu Feng gathered everyone together. After Chu Youhuan erased the mark on the storage ring, he opened it directly!

What came into view were mountains of medicine-refining materials, as well as some unnamed weapon-refining materials.

"This purple crystal is a weapon-refining material abundant in the southern part of the Chu Kingdom. It is called 'Purple Extreme Sand' and is specially used to refine high-grade spiritual weapons."

"This yellow elixir that looks like a tree root is called 'Huangsu Bamboo'. It is very rare in Chu State. It can be used to refine a medium-grade recovery elixir!"

"This......"

"Hahaha, I'm getting rich. The items in this storage ring can be sold for hundreds or tens of millions!"

“One big net can harvest so much, I can’t imagine it in the future!”

"Oh my god, I have been suffering all my life and I have never seen so much wealth."

"You're right, the swamp is paradise!"

"..."

After recognizing some of the items, everyone roared excitedly.

Although Gu Feng didn't yell, he still clenched his fist and waved it hard a few times. A good start is half the success, and he will definitely succeed this time!

Chu Youhuan next to him had a smile on his flawless face. At that moment, the swamp area covered by fog seemed to be illuminated by sunlight.

“The first pot of gold is here, let’s keep working!!!”

"it is good!!"
